Its somewhat amazing that this bold, bizarrely eclectic CD by three guys from
Minneapolis would come out on a French label. All three players on this CD are
renowned session musicians who have played with everybody from Miles Davis to
Billy Joel, but News From the Jungle is anything but the slick production you
might expect from a trio of session men. The album starts out with a heavy,
menacing sound portrait of a bad night in a bad neighborhood, with Sonny
Thompson grimly reciting crime statistics over a pounding beat, wailing guitar,
and a collage of police calls and urban sound effects. About a third of the way
through the nine-minute track, the vocals stop and the guitar takes over for a
instrumental freakout that is jaw-dropping. After this long, tense start things
swerve suddenly into free jazz for Take the Coltrane, and the experimental,
improvisational feel doesnt let up from there. Several of the pieces that follow
have intensely distorted guitars and pounding drum and basslines that verge on
heavy metal, but with a freedom, vigor, and wildness that take them far into
other territory. When this approach is applied to Duke Ellington pieces, the
result is eye-opening. The bizarre version of The Mooche is a change of pace,
the normally swinging piece given a ghostly, eerie feel by slow-motion tempo and
bent guitar notes. The restrained, tasteful vocal performances by Sonny Thompson
are another surprise; he sounds relaxed and natural on a solo performance of the
Burt Bacharach chestnut, This Guys in Love With You, which is a refreshing
change of pace from the crunching performances that precede it. The stylistic
shifts throughout this album may distance some listeners, but those who are
adventurous will revel in the unpredictability as well as the virtuosity of this
exceptional trio.~Richard Foss
